Start from your marine or reef system's total water volume, including sump, and pick the model rated at or above it. If your system sits right on the boundary between two models, the larger one gives you headroom to dial back rather than running flat-out permanently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOzone generator unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal power transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNot included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir dryer — humid feed air reduces ozone output; see the Aqua Medic Ozone Booster - Air Dryer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOzone reactor or skimmer injection fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRedox (ORP) controller or probe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitable for, and not suitable for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e marine, reef and freshwater systems run through an existing skimmer or a dedicated ozone reactor, sized to the table above.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot suitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e dosing directly into the display with no skimmer or reactor to strip the treated air, and no carbon stage to catch any ozone residual.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRunning costs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower draw is low across the range — 2.5 W on the smallest model up to 5 W on the 250 and 400. Run continuously at 30c\/kWh, that's roughly $6.57 to $13.14 a year depending on model; see the variant table above for the figure per size. The real running cost to plan around is redox: an ozone generator run without a controller can push redox higher than intended, which is a livestock risk, not just a power bill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSafety\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOzone is a lung and gill irritant at working concentrations and must never vent into the room. Always feed ozone into a skimmer or reactor, run the treated water back through activated carbon before it reaches the display, and use a redox controller to cut the generator off if redox climbs too high. Feed the generator with dry air — see the Aqua Medic Ozone Booster - Air Dryer — since humid air reduces output and shortens desiccant life downstream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGoes well with\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/aqua-medic-ozone-booster-air-dryer\"\u003eAqua Medic Ozone Booster - Air Dryer\u003c\/a\u003e — dries the feed air so output stays consistent.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/aqua-medic-t-controller-twin-2-0\"\u003eAqua Medic T Controller Twin 2.0\u003c\/a\u003e — pairs with a redox probe to control the generator automatically.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/aqua-medic-230mv-redox-orp-test-fluid-60ml\"\u003eAqua Medic 230mV Redox (ORP) Test Fluid 60ml\u003c\/a\u003e — for calibrating the redox probe.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWarranty and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCovered by Aqua Medic's manufacturer warranty against defects, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law.
